Trekking - Monferrato

Tour of the “Bole”

The loop trail starts from Piazza Vignaioli in Penango and winds through the green meadows of Valsesio, between the villages of Penango and Calliano Monferrato. As you walk, you come across the "bole" (bule), a dialect term for the ancient water reserves used by the farmers of these hills. Although they are no longer in use, they are still full of charm.

About halfway along the trail, in the middle of Valsesio, you can take a small detour to reach the giant bench located in the hamlet of Perrona di Calliano Monferrato.
